I'm hoping to run an EM27 base station and am wondering what I need with
regard to a transformer to drop the voltage to the 13.8V required. £ is
definately a major factor in the decision - the thought of using an old 12v
doorbell transformer crossed my mind but the 1A output is probably a tad low
for a CB. Anybody bought one recently? Would very much welcome any

NO.
You absolutely MUST use a proper, regulated power supply. Anything else will either damage the
supply, the CB radio or both.

For more information about UK CB and what you need, try this site...

There is also a dealer database, so you could look to see if there is a dealer near you.
